Case Study: Bloomin' Brands achieves 50% boost in cloud performance and 40% energy reduction with Nutanix Enterprise Cloud

Bloomin Brands Serves Up Business Growth with Nutanix

Bloomin Brands, a global restaurant chain operating 110 restaurants with 12,000 employees in Brazil, needed to scale its data center to support 10% annual growth while ensuring restaurant data stayed available during emergencies, improving performance of critical applications (like Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP), and reducing energy and space usage.

By deploying Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Appliances (including AHV, Acropolis AOS, and integrated Data Protection & DR), Bloomin Brands halved monthly ERP consolidation time to four hours, achieved a 50% boost in cloud performance, and cut energy consumption by 40% and rack space by 50%. Integrated native DR delivered a five-minute RTO, allowing IT to focus on business growth rather than infrastructure management.
